HOW
DID PENDANT PRODUCTIONS COME TO BE?
In late
August of 2004, along with a few close friends and family
members, I formed Pendant Productions. Pendant is an audio
production group dedicated to making radio dramas like the
old radio serials of the '30s and '40s, only modernized for
today's audiences.
Think
of them as movies without the video feed.
Our first
project was based around our mutual love of Star Trek. "Star
Trek: Defiant" is a text based story list that I started
way back in 1995. And it's still around, too. One of the group
members had been doing short radio dramas loosely based on
the expansive universe we'd all created together over the
course of a decade. Due to creative differences, I was asked
by several group members if realizing Defiant in audio was
something that I might be able to do myself. I looked into
it, and to my surprise, I was able to find enough sound effects
and even a decent audio mixing program to make it possible.
So we went forward with that project and, despite a bit of
a production lag due to circumstances beyond our control (that's
life for you), it's now going strong and is one of our most
popular fan-based shows.
I've been
a huge Superman fan for as long as I can remember. Not long
after starting the first Defiant audio, I was able to listen
to some of the old Superman radio serials from the 1940s and
they were a lot of fun. And then it hit me... we could do
Superman audio stories too!
And that's
how it all began. Since then we've grown in scope and members
farther than I ever thought we would, and we're having a great
time doing it.
And so
before you sits the fruits of our labor. We make no money
whatsoever off of this, and do it purely for fun and entertainment.
We're
always accepting new members, so if you'd like to join
us you're more than welcome. All you need is a computer
and a microphone. So thanks for stopping by, and let
us know what you think!
We hope
that you enjoy our artistic audio endeavors, and that we can
provide you with some relaxation and entertainment whenever
you need it. Thanks for listening!

I
WOULD LIKE TO HELP MAKE THESE AWESOME PIECES OF AUDIO GOODNESS.
HOW CAN I JOIN PENDANT PRODUCTIONS?
 We
are always looking for new members. If you're interested in
just keeping up with our projects or would like to help out
(by auditioning for roles or otherwise), please feel free
to stop by our Yahoo group and sign up:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pendant
When applying
to join, mention that you followed the link from the website.
This is so we know you're a real person and can keep spammers
out. Thanks!
We're
looking for actors, artists, audio mixers and flash animators.
If you'd like to help out, please sign up!
If you're
interested in auditioning for roles, all you have to do is
follow the instructions posted with the casting calls for
the roles you'd like to audition for. All auditions are always
open to everyone and you can audition for as many roles as
you'd like.
Here are
some tips on recording lines:
1. You
will need a microphone. You can get decent ones for around
$10, although many computers seem to come with one type or
another these days.
2. You
will need a program to record your lines in. Windows Sound
Recorder is not a good option.
Audacity
is a good program to record your lines in, and it's completely
free and is available for both Mac and PC. It doesn't get
much better than that.
3. Listen
to your lines after recording them. Be sure that you are happy
with how they sound and don't be afraid to do them over until
you get them the way you want them. Often times I'll record
one line four or five times before I get a reading that I'm
happy with.
4. Listen
for any "breath pops" in the sound file. These are
made from your breath hitting the mic and can be next to impossible
to remove in the editing process. They most often occur with
headsets, where the mic ends up too close to your mouth. If
there's a "pop" in the line, you'll need to redo
it to get a clean recording. Also try to minimize any echos
you might hear and be sure background noise is as ambient
as possible (your computer fan is fine, a television or radio,
or dog barking is not).

HOW
CAN I GET IN TOUCH WITH PENDANT PRODUCTIONS TO TELL YOU HOW
TOTALLY COOL YOU ARE?
Back
to top
ARE
THE CD-QUALITY VERIONS REALLY THAT MUCH NICER? AND WHAT'S
BITTORRENT?
There
is quite a large difference between the CD-quality master
versions of our productions and the web-quality versions we
make available for mass download.
So why
do we make different versions? Two reasons.
First,
not all of our listeners have broadband. Without broadband,
many of the CD-Quality master versions would be prohibitively
large for people on dial-up. Trying to get a 20Mb file on
a connection of that speed would be frustrating and close
to impossible, and we want to make our shows accessible to
everyone.
Second,
bandwidth issues. Pendant Productions already operates through
several hundred gigabytes of bandwidth per month. The larger
the files are, the more bandwidth that is used, which means
the more it costs us to bring you these completely free shows.
So it's in the best interest of everyone for us to keep our
bandwidth as low as possible.
So just
how much better do the CD-quality master versions sound? Take
a listen to these two short clips I've prepared from the end
scene of "Superman: The Last Son of Krypton" issue
12.
As
you can hear for yourself, there's quite the difference! The
master clip is much more crisp, clean and full of a lot of
detail that's lost due to the compression for the web version.
So
how can you get the CD-quality versions?
We'll
be releasing bundles of episodes from time to time via BitTorrent.
This is an easy to use, completely free peer-to-peer file
sharing service. And if you only download our torrent files,
there is absolutely zero danger of viruses or spyware getting
onto your system (if you download torrents from other websites,
however, do so at your own risk).
And
how do you get the files via BitTorrent?
Download
the .torrent file.
Presently we have eleven torrent collections available:
James Bond:
To The End, the complete feature (episodes 1-7 joined)
Superman:
The Last Son of Krypton, Master Pack 1 (issues 1-12
collected)
Superman:
The Last Son of Krypton, Master Pack 2 (issues 13-24

WHAT
ARE THESE TRIANGLE NUMBERS AND WHAT'S THE SUPERHERO SHOW ORDER?
All cover
art for our superhero shows contains a triangle with two sets
of numbers inside it. Have a look here:
Click
here for full-size
The
triangle in question is on the right side of the cover, just
below the title. What the heck is that?
This
was a technique employed in the '90s and into the early 2000s
in Superman comics. Back then, the books had a tightly-knit
continuity and the story continued from one comic book (say,
"Action Comics") to the next (say, "Adventures
of Superman"). These numbers let you know what order
to read the books in to follow the overall story.
We
here at Pendant are continuity nuts, and so this was something
I immediately jumped on once we had artists willing to do
covers for us. In the above image, the "2007" in
the triangle is easy enough to figure out, that's quite obviously
the year of release.
The
"27" in the triangle means that, taken as a whole
story with a tight continuity throughout all Pendant superhero
shows, that episode ("Superman: The Last Son of Krypton"
issue 32) was the 27th part of the ongoing story for that
year. When the next year rolls around, the "2007"
becomes "2008", the other number resets to "1"
with the first superhero show to debut that year and we keep
rolling onward.
In
this method you know exactly what order to listen to all of
the superhero shows in should you want to get the full picture
of Pendant continuity.
Unfortunately,
not all episodes have cover art, so included below is a list
of all episodes of all superhero shows, in order of continuity,
for your edification.
